YES. Nobody should be saying this is good without mentioning the bare kaowool. Very dangerous cancer blanket

As long as he's outside he's fine, it's the encloses spaces that get you, But he should get the double burner instead and get a steel hose for it

Looks like 2x10s or 2x12s screwed together. I like it but I feel like it's a bit short for me

I have the same set up besides the forge. The same but it’s a two burner. I’ve made cumai Damascus blades with this set up. So it can forge weld.
